Day trip to High Point State Park, New Jersey

The longer I live in New Jersey, the more I fall in love with all it has to offer. That's a big change from 6 years ago when living in New York and not thinking much of my neighboring state. It's been s much fun venturing out in search of new hiking trails and lear[...]

Nature finds for weekend fun in New Jersey

This is one of the first years we have been home all summer. We have loved it though at first it was hard. For my kids the start was bumpy because they suddenly found themselves with not much to do (I also didn't sign them up for all-summer camp!) and most of t[...]

Five things I love about New Jersey

I've lived in New Jersey now for about 4 years now. Like most hardcore New Yorkers, it's been a slow process to get me to let go of this idea that I have to venture into the city for good food, entertainment, or activities. I still get teased by friends for bec[...]

Our Fun Staycation Weekend

My family and I are huge fans of staycations. They encourage us to still go out and discover something new together closer to home. Toyota contacted me recently and asked me to check out their 2014 Highlander for a few days. Of course, testing out cars means wee[...]

Two NJ Beaches, Two NJ Experiences: From Belmar to Atlantic City

This travel post is part of a host agreement. A couple of weekends ago I headed out to join a group of fellow bloggers to give New Jersey beaches a shout out. Weather-wise it wasn't the best weekend. We've been experiencing lots of rain lately, and though I was h[...]

A Walk Through History at Duke Farms, NJ

Oh, New Jersey. You never cease to amaze me. We've enjoyed finding more and more ways to spend time outdoors, in nature. But most of all, we've been able to enjoy it all at minimal cost, if not free. We've such enjoyed these awesome finds that when we aren't travel[...]

An Afternoon at the Morris Museum in Morristown, NJ

What is so great about NJ, I am finding, is that like NYC, it has a lot of different neighborhoods, each with its own personality. Traveling into a different neighborhood can make for a nice list of varied experiences and opportunities to explore. This weekend,[...]

A Visit to Princeton, NJ

One of the things that I am loving about living in New Jersey is how easily and quickly it is to access smaller, cute towns that make for either great family getaways or romantic destinations. What most people know about Princeton, NJ is limited to the university[...]

Today’s morning was fueled by one of our fave sp Today’s morning was fueled by one of our fave spots in Geneva, NY - @monacoscoffee. We found this spot a few years ago, before we moved to the area full time while at a rental nearby and immediately fell in love with its community and cozy vibe, and delicious coffee. 

It’s even cuter than when we first visited while all the reasons we love it remain. Always worth a stop when in Geneva.
